Christmas Nativity ~ FREE Posters

Looking for some free printable Biblical Nativity posters or Nativity images for Christmas? You’re kidding, right? I know it’s awhile off yet, but Compassion sponsors have to start thinking about Christmas (and everything else) well before the big day, as letters sometimes take months to get to their child. I’ve had one letter from Africa take FIVE months. Must have been one thirsty camel. :) So here is my first Christmas post slipped in while nobody is looking just in case anybody out there is an early starter. Share these with your family and friends when the time comes, too. And don’t forget to check out our Christmas Master List where you will find FREE 500+ Nativity colouring pages, FREE Nativity puzzles, FREE Nativity crafts, FREE Nativity stationery and all things Nativity for kids… all free printable… enjoy!   :)

The real meaning of Christmas – FREE Posters  (Hobby Lobby) Some time back, I took the time to stop and thank this family business for these excellent free printable Christ-centred images.

Christmas Nativity – Poster  (Answers in Genesis) Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus and the angels appearing to the shepherds against a starry night sky; Wow! God was born in a stable and His name is Jesus! A stable was different back then—it wasn’t really a “barn” like you see on farms today. Many times it was nothing but a cave in the mountainside where the animals would be safe, dry and warm. That manger doesn’t look too comfortable, does it? A manger was really a trough, often made out of stone. The animals would eat or drink out of these mangers or troughs. This is where Mary laid her new, sweet baby. This must have been a beautiful, special night; free printable

Remember:  Christmas is ALL about Jesus!  It is when the Creator Himself arrived on earth for a very special and dangerous rescue mission for each one of us. We are all invited. He paid the penalty for our sin and rebellion against a Holy God ~ Himself ~ and died in our place. None of us measure up. He is a holy God and His pass mark is 100%. He is the judge who passes sentence on us, then steps down and pays our penalty. We couldn’t possibly do anything to deserve it! It’s His free and priceless gift to us ~ and our choice ~ as to whether or not we will accept it. It costs us nothing. It cost Him everything.

GRACE = God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense.
